My inner river
“Everything that brings, potentially or eventually, someone inward and closer to understanding themselves, and, eventually, understanding others, or vice versa, is good in my book.

Familiar unknown
“I have been peeling the layers, shedding the skins a lot more aggressively these days and my discernment is a lot more on point too. Changes have been happening quicker and instead of seeing it as instability I can’t help but recognise it as momentums being gained…” (En savoir plus)

Simply merci!
“… top 1% of all podcasts in the world in term of longevity! I have cleverly snuck the previous twenty titles with the links to the episodes in the blog version and in the episode description. Thank you for amplifying my voice with your ears. Merci – simply merci!” (En savoir plus)
Il a neigé
“….Why are these questions so important to me? Why do I want to know why things happen? Why do I want to know why people do, or don’t do, things? Why does it bother me when my ‘whys’ aren’t answered? Because without a why I wouldn’t know how?” (En savoir plus)
